Product description The XCaliber Fixator is made of radiolucent material for unobstructed X-ray visualization. The metallic bolts and the cam and bush of each ball-joint, are the only radio-opaque components. Features & Benefits As it is radiolucent and made of a composite material, the ball-joint deforms after repeated tightening. In addition the joint is sealed and cannot be dismantled for cleaning. The Features of Meta-Diaphyseal Fixator Stable Fixation of Metaphyseal and Diaphyseal Fractures A single fixator for both metaphyseal and diaphyseal fractures Built-in bone screw convergence of 0-15 degrees Optional supplementary screw clamps Multiple bone screw fixation possibilities with the same clamp Stable fixation (even in short bone segments) achieved through convergent and/or triangular screw positions Ball-joints allow correction up to 22 degrees from straight position, in any direction, with fixator in place Ball-joints lock/unlock from either side. One instrument for fixator locking/unlocking Supplementary screw holder available for versatile screw placement Telescoping body for fracture reduction, compression/distraction and dynamization for callus maturation Dynamic C/D Unit for compression/distraction and early cyclic movement for callus stimulation Ideal in proximal and distal metaphysis
